NORTHFIELD, Ill., Oct. 30 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The College of
American Pathologists, a medical society serving more than 17,000 physician
members and the laboratory community throughout the world, today announced
that Charles Roussel has been selected as Executive Vice President,
responsible for the daily operations of the College and reporting to the
Board of Governors.

"Charles has extensive experience in transformational change, as well
as a passion for healthcare," said CAP President Jared N. Schwartz, M.D.,
Ph.D., FCAP. "We're excited to have recruited such an outstanding
individual as the College embarks on its campaign to transform the
specialty of pathology."

Roussel, 46, most recently was a director at The Atlantic
Philanthropies, where he directed a $300 million global philanthropic
investment portfolio that benefited disadvantaged children. He worked to
bring healthcare back into schools and advocated for greater funding for
preventive medical and mental health services.

Prior to that, Roussel was a Managing Partner at global consultancy
Accenture, where he helped clients around the world envision and effect
transformational change. He served as an executive level advisor to
pharmaceutical and high technology companies, led the firm's research on
personal and home health technology, and founded and led Accenture's
mergers, acquisitions and alliances specialty group. He has written and
spoken extensively on achieving growth through alliances.

"The CAP is a terrific organization -- well run and well led with a
proud history," Roussel said. "It has an ambitious vision to transform the
role of the pathologist, which I find compelling and achievable: to become
an integral part of the patient care team, from risk assessment, through
diagnosis and treatment, to monitoring. During our family's recent struggle
with cancer, we were overwhelmed with data and often didn't know who to
turn to. Pathologists grasp the fundamentals of disease. In partnership
with others in healthcare, they can help patients better understand their
diagnoses, prognoses, and options for therapy."

He added: "In the rapidly advancing era of personalized medicine and
against a backdrop of ever-increasing health care costs, the College will
have to leverage all of its considerable assets -- membership talent,
intellectual and technological leadership, market presence, advocacy skills
and reputation -- to bring about this vision. It is the opportunity of a
lifetime to help lead this effort, and I feel privileged to be part of
something that could help transform healthcare in America."

Roussel earned a BS from Bentley College and an MBA from the University
Of Chicago Graduate School Of Business. He has served on the Board of
Trustees of The Children's Aid Society of New York and Single Stop USA and
on the Advisory Board of the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center in East
Harlem, New York.

The College of American Pathologists is a medical society serving more
than 17,000 physician members and the laboratory community throughout the
world. It is the world's largest association composed exclusively of
pathologists and is widely considered the leader in laboratory quality
assurance. The College is an advocate for high-quality and cost-effective
medical care.
